A prank by a group of girls leads to the discovery of a morbidly obese man suffering a severe asthma attack - but if he is to be treated properly, the medics need to extract him from his first-floor window. The paramedics witness a motorcyclist fleeing a crime with the victim in pursuit, so when his bike skids they are well placed to deal with his badly broken leg - and before long, Dixie finds herself bonding with the angry young criminal. Back in the ED, Robyn is flattered by Cal's support for her during an assessment, only to have her hopes dashed
Casualty is the world's longest running and most successful medical drama series on television. It depicts the private and working lives of the patients, doctors, nurses and all others attending a small but frantically busy accident and emergency department of the large Holby General hospital. By mixing episodic plots with longer, character-based stories it ensures that we get to know the characters as people with lives, not just doctors or nurses. With consistently superb storylines and great acting, Casualty is compulsive viewing. The show began in 1986 and since then only one character remains; the one and only Charlie Fairhead played by Derek Thompson.
